SDTV resolution by nation: for historical reasons, different countries use either 480i or 576i as their standard-definition picture format. Standard-definition television (SDTV; also standard definition or SD) is a television system that uses a resolution that is not considered to be either high or enhanced definition. [1]
It was the standard resolution from 1990 to around 1996. [citation needed] The standard resolution was 800 × 600 until around 2000. Microsoft Windows XP, released in 2001, was designed to run at 800 × 600 minimum, although it is possible to select the original 640 × 480 in the Advanced Settings window.
The 1280 × 1024 resolution is not the standard 4:3 aspect ratio, instead it is a 5:4 aspect ratio (1.25:1 instead of 1. 3:1). A standard 4:3 monitor using this resolution will have rectangular rather than square pixels, meaning that unless the software compensates for this the picture will be distorted, causing circles to appear elliptical.
The resolution of 960H depends on whether the equipment is PAL or NTSC based: 960H represents 960 x 576 (PAL) or 960 x 480 (NTSC) pixels. [29] 960H represents an increase in pixels of some 30% over standard D1 resolution, which is 720 x 576 pixels (PAL), or 720 x 480 pixels (NTSC). The increased resolution over D1 comes as a result of a longer ...
SDTV resolution by nation: countries using 480i are in green. 480i is the video mode used for standard-definition digital video [1] in the Caribbean, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Philippines, Myanmar, Western Sahara, and most of the Americas (with the exception of Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay).
SDTV resolution by nation: countries using 576i are in blue. 576i is a standard-definition digital video mode, [1] originally used for digitizing 625 line analogue television in most countries of the world where the utility frequency for electric power distribution is 50 Hz.
QHD is a screen resolution that measures 2560 x 1440 pixels and has a 16:9 aspect ratio on monitors, TVs, and mobile devices.
525-line (or EIA 525/60) is an American standard-definition television resolution used since July 1, 1941, [1] [2] [3] mainly in the context of analog TV broadcast systems. It consists of a 525-line raster , with 486 lines carrying the visible image at 30 (29.97 with color) interlaced frames per second.
